BARRIE- A 33-year-old woman has been charged with personation after she allegedly gave the wrong name to police officers. Last October, officers were called to a local department store after a theft. Police spoke with the woman and released her based on the name she gave them. But on Jan. 16, police learned she may not have been telling the truth. On Thursday morning, officers finally tracked her down and charged her with theft, failing to attend the station for fingerprints, skipping court and personation. She was held for a bail hearing.
